Palladium P17B


Recommended Posts

I have owned many speakers over the years, M&K, Linn (Aktiv), Magnepan, Castle, are a few, but the Palladium P17Bs are by far the most live sounding, accurate, lowest distortion, speakers that I have heard.

I could not be happier and I highly recommend them.

I don't have the room for Klipsch's larger speakers so not trying to start that debate. I am sure they are fantastic.

Sadly, the P-17's are rear ported, taking them out of consideration for my bookshelf mountings, which begs the question of why they are called bookshelf speakers, like so many others, anyway?  If I had room for stands, I'd likely have room for Heresy's. I actually could raise a shelf an inch or two and likely fit the Heresy's, less the risers, on the bookshelves - they could support the weight, which is ~2x the weight of the front ported RB-81ii's (They are in there now.). The P-17's just have killer looks, while the Heresy just looks like... a Heresy! The price is essentially the same...

 

Ah, pipe dreams (Without the pipe!).

 

Congrat's to the OP on your fine acquisition!
